"This acquisition represents a significant early milestone in the development of our growth strategy moving forward", comments Rod Marlin, ENTREC's Chairman and CEO. "MAX is a well-managed and fast growing business with the majority of its revenue generated from the Alberta oil sands region. We look forward to working with the current management team at MAX to continue to successfully grow our revenue in the Alberta oil sands and capitalize on the synergies that the combination of ENTREC and MAX will create."

The aggregate purchase price paid on closing was $10,075,000 and was paid through a combination of: (i) the issuance of 2,000,000 common shares of ENTREC issued at a deemed price of $1.00 per share; and (ii) $8,075,000 in cash. The aggregate purchase price included $1,575,000, which specifically related to the cost of growth capital expenditures incurred by MAX in 2011. The final purchase price for the business of MAX remains subject to certain adjustments related to the normalized earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for the trailing twelve-month period ended August 1, 2011 as well as the amount of capital expenditures incurred by MAX in 2011.

In addition, ENTREC has entered into a put/call agreement with the shareholders of MAX to acquire the issued and outstanding shares of MAX for cash consideration $4,000,000. The put/call agreement provides the option to either party to have ENTREC acquire the outstanding shares of MAX at any time between April 1, 2012 and July 31, 2012. The agreement stipulates that the only assets existing in MAX will be equipment with a current value of approximately $4,000,000 (the "Excluded Assets") and that ENTREC will not assume any liabilities. ENTREC has entered into an equipment lease arrangement to lease the Excluded Assets until such time has the put/call agreement is completed or terminated.

During the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2011, MAX generated revenue of $12.1 million and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of $3.0 million. Revenue for the twelve-month period ended August 1, 2012 is currently expected to approximate $15.0 million to $16.0 million.
